Hi All

I have a quick question about the way of collection names for a possible client database.

I have been thinking about collecting names through going door to door to each business and running a short survey at each one which would acheive two things for me.

1. At the completion of the survey i would use all collected data to compile the results which i would then put into a press release to the local newspaper as a way to get some publicity.

2. To prequalify potential prospects for my products.

I would be collecting name and phone number and such but this information would never be sold or the likes to other parties.

Do you think that this sort of name collection would be suitable or is it bordering on being ethically or morally wrong?

Thanks i look forward to hearing your opinions on this topic.
